Abstract: |
With the development of China’s aging situation, the acoustic environment of elderly
care facilities has attracted attention. Previous studies have shown the relationships between
different sound sources and emotional perception, but work has been limited to associate sound
source types with emotions. This paper took 8 elderly care facilities in Hohhot and Harbin as case
study sites, where four background sound sources were played, including bird sounds, running
water, piano music and Chinese folk songs in the activity spaces, and 177 valid questionnaires
were collected while sound pressure levels were measured at the same time. Experiments were
carried out in the meditation hall, table tennis room, chess and card room, billiard activity room
and other spaces of the elderly care facilities. In the experiment, several questionnaires were
distributed without adding background sound sources, and then each piece of sound source was
played in order for 30 minutes, and questionnaire interviews were conducted at the same time,
with a 10-minute interval between each piece of music. During the experiment, sound level meter
was used to measure the one-minute average A-weighted equivalent sound pressure level in the
center of the room, including various situations with or without background sound sources, to
ensure that the increased sound is the background sound in the environment. The questionnaire
includes three parts. The first part is the basic personal information such as the respondent's
gender, age, and educational experience. The second part is the interviewee's emotion and
evaluation index of acoustic environment. The third part is the on-site information filled out by
the investigator.
The results show that, on the whole, bird sounds and Chinese folk songs have a significant
positive effect on increasing pleasure emotions. Piano music and Chinese folk songs have a
significant positive effect on increasing awakening emotions. Birdsong and Chinese folk songs
have a significant positive effect on suppressing annoying emotions. There is a significant
positive correlation between bird sounds and quietness (r=0.245, p<0.01), and Chinese folk
songs have a significant positive correlation with the degree of influence on activities (r =0.182,
p<0.05). The effect of bird sounds on the overall evaluation is most significant (r=0.170,p<0.05). People with different activity types have different preferences for sound source types. The average sound pressure levels for table tennis,
chess, billiards, and sit-in activities were 72.1 dBA, 61.6 dBA, 66.8 dBA, and 56.1 dBA, respectively. Chinese folk songs have significantly
improved the two emotional dimensions and the overall evaluation of pleasure and annoyance during table tennis activities; piano songs and
running water have no positive impact on the emotional and acoustic environment evaluation of chess and card activities; piano music and bird
sounds in billiard activities have a positive impact on emotion and sound environment evaluation. Piano music has a great impact on the two
dimensions of pleasure and awakening and the overall evaluation. Bird sounds have a greater improvement on disturbances and restlessness than
others. For sit-in activities, bird sounds have a positive effect on the dimensions of pleasure and disturbance, and the impacts on the evaluation
were the greatest. In terms of individual differences, age was significantly negatively correlated with the degree of arousal (r=-0.184, p<0.05),
and was significantly positively correlated with the degree of quietness (r =-0.258, p<0.01). The 80-89 age group have the best evaluation of the
sound added to the activity space. The evaluation of the background sound source with age increases first and then declines. This may be related
to the health status and life rules of people of different ages. Different genders have almost no effect on emotional and acoustic environment
assessments. In terms of education, seniors with a college degree or above are more likely to feel noisy, and they also have a batter evaluation
on adding background sound sources to activity spaces. People with lower educational backgrounds have a lower preference for adding sound
sources than the former, but they have a higher acceptance level of noise.
In summary, it is possible to make suggestions to the acoustic environment designers and managers of elderly care facilities. For spaces that
need to increase the sense of quietness such as billiards rooms, chess and card rooms, etc., natural sounds such as bird sounds and running water
should be added. For the space where the elderly sit in meditation, it is necessary to increase the sense of awakening. It is advisable to increase the
sound of music such as piano music and Chinese folk songs. The elderly activity center has a high proportion of elderly people in the 70-89 age
group, and is more suitable for playing background sounds according to the activities. |
